Traffic Dispersal Scheme (SPRINT),
comprising a network of links to relieve
congestion in key populated areas
in western Kuala Lumpur, was built.

initiative to gear up for the 2022 FIFA
Football World Cup. The mega project

town of Shahaniya and continues to
the Zekreet interchange neighbouring
the Dukhan industrial area. The
completed highway brings immense
travelling convenience to residents
and enhanced logistics coordination
for the commercial district.

in the global construction arena,
the New Doha International Airport
project in Qatar was Gamuda’s best

leader in engineering, construction
and project management that carries
an impeccable track record of “Zero
Accident” policy.
